Abstract

We have successfully fabricated a nanocomposite, which is composed of polyaniline (PAni) and pyrene butyric acid (Pyba) via a solvent shift method, which was self-doped at a neutral pH value. This PAni nanocomposite can act as a fine nanoagent expressing absorbance, fluorescence, and Raman properties according to the surrounding pH values.
